Hartmut led “a workshop in the old-fashioned way of discussion, mutual exploration of ideas and samples; trying out what can be shared and where the fault lines show.”
Journalist and underground music champion Alan Cummings talks to Keiji Haino about his career and his performance the previous evening.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
An evening of live performances, readings & saucy rococo cakes celebrating the launch of Truth and Lies – An Anthology of Writing and Art by Sex Workers.
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).

A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
Boston duo of saxophonist Bhob Rainey and trumpeter Greg Kelley approach their improvisations with a slew if extended techniques and pregnant silences.
